I love this track from a great band. It is electronic, and very cinematic and grand. It really connects me to all of the pieces of myself, particularly the little ones.

To me, it represents that time in between battles, the calm after a victory. But, the sense that there is more to be done ahead.

It is also about our stories not being over yet. But, it also about listening to those parts of us inside, particularly the kids, that have fought the good fight already in the early chapters of our story. They have already experienced what we are now trying to fight. And we carry them forward with us into the next battle and honor their sacrifices. Just like our older selves will honor what we do today.

I don't know, maybe I read too much into it. But, this song just makes me goosebump all over and feel ready for the next fight.

IntroWe didn't need a storyWe didn't need a real worldWe just had to keep walkingAnd we became the storiesWe became the placesWe were the lightsThe desertsThe faraway worldsWe were you before you even existed

Carry on, carry on, Carry onAnd after us the flood

Carry on, carry on, Carry onOur silver horn it leads the way

Banners of gold ShineIn the coldIn the coldIn the cold

Footprints of snowBlind from the roadFade

We carry on, carry onFollow us, we are oneThe battle's foughtThe deed is doneOur silver hum runs dark and strongHand to the heartLips to the hornWe can saveWe can be rebornHead on my breastI'll keep you warmSafe
